Digital 4 Track Recorders?
leftist writes "I'm looking for an entry level digital 4 or 8 track digital recorder to experiment with in the $500 range. Any product recommendations or warnings out there in the geek crowd? Something that uses mp2/mp3 natively a plus!" Krow: What, you wanted content with your story?
That always seems to be the response to Ask Slashdot anyways, so I'll pre-suppose the question and provide a Google link: here
You have to figure out the story yourselves. It's not 4'33" by any chance?
Ladies, form queue here -->
Okay, as a /. editor you cop lotsa crap when you do a repost
You even cop crap for posting about every release of Mozilla/Phoenix/other OS darling
But did you really have to revert to denying the existence of the posted article by posting the textual equivalent of John Cage's patented 4:33?
(Is the title - pertaining to music creation - a reference to the aforementioned composition?)
Are you posing the ultimate philosophical yet slashdotical question:
"If a post has no text, does it get read?"
Cliff, I give you 11 out of 10 and salute your originality.
But don't let CowboyNeal repost it!
This sig intentionally left bla... dammit!
Who's got the whiteout?
There are 3 basic problems in using a Digital 4 Track Recorders to pull a dog sled in the Iditarod.
1) Current regulation prohibit non-canine devices from pulling the sled. However, a more liberal tone has been taken in recent years may allow this. Cats are supposed to considered for next year's race
2) Current power consumption is pretty high, the solar power banks required to power it would be prohibitive.
3) It may come as a surprise to you, but Digital 4 track recorders don't provide any locomotive capabilities. However, apparently some Japanese company is preparing to release in Q4 of 2003 a dual tread model, so keep the look out for that
